April 6

10th Annual KEGS ‘n’ EGGS, Kansas City Renaissance Festival

KEGS ‘n’ EGGS is making its tenth annual go-round at the Kansas City Renaissance Festival this year. Tailored for those 21 and over, KEGS ‘n’ EGGS will be offering a variety of craft beer, wine, spirit, and mocktail tastings as attendees stumble, searching for prizes in their egg hunt. The hidden eggs each contain candy, prizes, or prize tickets that are redeemable for over $20,000 worth of cash and rewards. While running a muck, probing for anything that may resemble an egg may not be your thing, there will also be food trucks, shopping opportunities, and other activities and games. With tickets starting at $30 for designated drivers and $55 for general admission, the trip out to Bonner Springs this early April should make for a tipsy turnout that Saturday. Tickets are available through the Kansas City Renaissance Festival’s website.

KC Mavericks Last Home Game of Regular Season, Cable Dahmer Arena

On Wednesday, April 10, join the Kansas City Mavericks at Cable Dahmer Arena for their last regular season home game against the Cincinnati Cyclones. It has been smooth-sailing for the team this season as they head into the final month of regular season hockey play before heading into the 2024 ECHL playoffs. Nevertheless, the team can still use all the help they can get from their fans as they try to conclude the year on a high-note. A midweek venture out to Independence makes for a well-priced family outing that will offer thrills to all ages. The game begins at 7:05 p.m., with tickets starting at $12 and can be found through the Mavericks’ website.
